I want to try it for B&W portraits besides doing some nature shots in
color.

This lens perhaps more better looking than on pictures, no scratches ,no fungus , aperture and focusing smooth. I saw only one negative a 2mm wide dust ring around front lens edge. As usual this dust more worst in this type of lens, my copy is worst than this. I am sure this is not impact picture quality at all. Hopefully you will love it, if not I will buy back Smile

Attila, I don't foresee any chance of you buying it back, these are very
hard to come by in the states. Wink I have the m42 bottom cap, what
size is the front cap?

Very nice copy. Bill - I hope that you will be satisfied from results Smile Trioplan is a very specific lens - especially when wide open. Good for nature shots and portraits. Isn't good when someone want sharp and "neutral" lens. Size of front caps is ~51 mm, filter size - 49 mm.
BTW my Trioplan comes with both caps and original, factory box (still in good condition!)
Good night everybody Smile

Wow, I'm rather slack in the jaw! You guys are really quite a group of nice people. I didn't realize that Attila had "scoped" this lens for Bill, until I found the thread about it. That was extremely nice of you, Attila. In the spirit of that, please don't hesitate if you (or anyone else) need something from the U.S. that I might be able to purchase on your behalf.

The lens looks splendid. What a GREAT find! I'll be anxious to see some of the results, especially the "wide open" results that are always so singularly aesthetic from that particular glass formula.

Congratulations, Bill!

Laurence, thank you for your kind words and I'm tickled to death to receive this lens! Very Happy Cool

I, too, have offered my services to both Atilla and Orio, and would like
to extend that to anyone else living outside the United States.

Looking forward to trying the lens in certain settings. Smile

I tried to snipe one now, with a good offer, but someone beat me Sad

I guess we should start to talk about these lenses only privately Sad
